What to expect during the process:

1. Kick-off meeting

A migration begins with a kick-off call in which we identify the goals and objectives for your migration. We will establish what items you would like to migrate and in what time frame. We work with you to make the transition as smooth as possible.

3. Migration process

Whether you would like to schedule your migration during school hours, after hours, weekends, or holidays, we will work with you to complete your migration within your schedule and time restraints.

2. Pre-migration checklist

A custom migration plan will be created with special attention to what items will migrate, action for all team members, and agreed on dates to finish on schedule. We will also instruct you on how to update your local printers, mail relays, BYOD devices, and more.

4. Review and support

We are here for you even after the migration is finished. We will provide post-migration support to troubleshoot any issues you might experience. The process will be completed with a wrap-up call to ensure success.
